I can respect someone who I do not agree with, but I have NO respect for someone who puts others down in a public forum. That is the hallmark of someone who has no integrity, and cannot be trusted.

When sports were still segregated, activists called for hiring the best athletes, regardless of skin color etc., and they were right. Now they want to reverse their position, and suddenly their credibility is blown all to hell. No one is going to attract people to basketball games based on the team's racial make up. Anyone left who still has an issue with black athletes is definitely not a basketball fan, and never will be. I'm pretty confident about that.

I don't care if the players of my favorite teams were orange with green polka dots. If they bring my team championships, I'm happy.
